Count me among the interested parties. The Dawes I had, built of who knows what tubing, had a shockingly good ride for the sort of bike it is ... and I bet Chris can wax poetic about it, too. Of course, any man who matches his shoes and sox to a green Meral had danged well better be able to wax poetic ... but that is perhaps just envy on my part.

At any rate, I am curious - is this one of the Dawes bikes with the fancy lugs that aren't Nervex?
